Product Information

Sofirn IF22A Rechargeable EDC Flashlight Spotlight, Powerful SFT40 LED max 2100 Lumens, Long Beam Distance Light For reference, here’s a baseline shot, with all the room lights off and almost nothing hitting the sensor. Also, here’s the light with the worst PWM I could find. I’m adding multiple timescales, so it’ll be easier to compare to the test light. Unfortunately, the PWM on this light is so bad that it doesn’t even work with my normal scale, which is 50 microseconds (50us). 10ms. 5ms. 2ms. 1ms. 0.5ms. 0.2ms.In a display faster than 0.2ms or so, the on/off cycle is more than one screen, so it’d just (very incorrectly) look like a flat line. I wrote more about this Ultrafire WF-602C flashlight and explained a little about PWM too. User Interface and Operation

There’s a few torches that didn’t make this top ten but deserve a mention. The Olight Baton 3 Pro is the most compact 18650 torch I’ve tested and almost the perfect EDC torch. Olight Baton 3 Pro (natural white version) in turbo mode I have the 6500K version which is measured at a slightly warmer 5855K without too much tint and a CRI of 65. It’s a little less convenient removing the battery to charge it, but you don’t have to worry about making sure any external ports are sealed. To obtain these numbers, I used a very rudimentary integrated shoebox and ceilingbounce on my Samsung Galaxy S10. Ceilingbounce has been calibrated using a standardized calibration light provided by 1Lumen. Sofirn SP60 Super Bright 6800 Lumens Thrower Flashlight, XHP70.3 LED Flashlight with Powerbank OutputUnscrew the ring below the head to reveal the USB-C charging port. Everything is perfectly machined and there’s an o-ring to maintain its IP68 waterproof rating. The torch I always have on me whatever, is still the RovyVon Aurora A8 I looked at in the keychain torch roundup. Small sample of headtorches I’m testing, ready for next article … I tested the charge cycle with both USB to USB-C and C to C. The charge looks about the same for either, but it’s good to know that C to C works just fine.

Surprisingly, the bezel is not glued down. Not only that but the threads are lubed. Usually manufacturers don’t want you getting into the bezel, but on the SC32 it’s wide open, meaning emitter swaps will be a breeze. Sofirn SP36 BLF Anduril 2.0 Rechargeable Flashlight 5650 lumens, 4*LH351D LEDs and Powerbank Output It has a magnetic tail cap which is useful for hands free operation, but also snaps very positively to the Olight magnetic charger if you have one, or into the charging case.

Customer reviews

But for me it comes down to a toss up between the smaller still Fenix E18R V2 and Olight Baton 3 both with similar outputs, and I’d honestly grab either. I prefer the user interface on the Baton 3 and the charging case is great but I like the standard USB-C charging on the Fenix and the non-rechargeable CR123A battery support. if ((defaultSelectedVariant && !defaultSelectedVariant.available) On the other side of the light, the head has some cooling fins cut into it, which are identical to those found on the Wurkkos TS10. That’s where the comparisons end, I promise. In another interesting move, the USB-C charging port is on what I consider to be the front of the light, above the make a model markings. The SC32 has a narrow rubber cover for the port, unlike other Sofirms which have a larger square cover. It fits fairly snugly, but is not too difficult to remove when you need to charge. Next to the charging port is a status light which stays on for 5 seconds when you first turn the light on, displaying in green when charge is good, solid red when it’s low, and flashing red when it’s critical. It also flashes red while charging.
